how to redirect to a jsp page from a servlet

well I have a jsp page with a login form, i'm using a servlet, if the username and password are correct the servlet redirects the user to another page else it redirects him to the login page again

when i log in with a correct username and password i'm redirected perfectly to reservation.jsp but when i put a wrong username or password in the form when i click on the submit button the page became blank

here is the servlet

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.sql.*;

import javax.servlet.RequestDispatcher;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpSession;

import com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement;

/**
 * Servlet implementation class LogServlet
 */
@WebServlet("/LogServlet")
public class LogServlet extends HttpServlet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;




public LogServlet() {
    super();

}



protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    response.setContentType("text/html");


    String name=request.getParameter("name");
    String password=request.getParameter("password");

    PreparedStatement ps = null;
    ResultSet rs = null;

    try {
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
        Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/log",
                "root","");
        ps = (PreparedStatement) conn.prepareStatement("select nom_client,username,password from client where username = ? and password = ?");

        ps.setString(1, name);
        ps.setString(2, password);
        rs=ps.executeQuery();



    try {
        while(rs.next()){
        if(password.equals(rs.getString("password")) && name.equals(rs.getString("username"))){

        HttpSession session=request.getSession();
        session.setAttribute("name",name);
        PrintWriter out=response.getWriter();
        request.getRequestDispatcher("reservation.jsp").include(request, response);
        }
        else{
            response.sendRedirect("/login.jsp");

        }}
    } catch (SQLException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();

    }
    System.out.close();


    }
    catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}


}
}

The response from the database was empty, so I had to add that case to the class (via if/else condition).

Add this

response.sendRedirect("/yourprojectname/");

and set login.jsp as welcome file in web.xml

Rather than giving response.sendRedirect("\login.jsp"); use response.sendRedirect("/yourprojectname/"); and in welcome file in web.xml set login.jsp as welcome file.

The problem could be here:

response.sendRedirect("/login.jsp");

This means that in the location header of the redirect response you will have:

http://localhost:8080/login.jsp

If you change it to:

response.sendRedirect("login.jsp");

than its relative to your webabb context path:

http://localhost:8080/app/login.jsp

Try with firebug or similar and trace down request/response you should find out quickly. And be sure jsp files are were expected in the hierarchy.

Hope this helps

use this.

request.getRequestDispatcher("/login.jsp").forward(request,response);

As you have used 

request.getRequestDispatcher("reservation.jsp").include(request, response);

to forward after successful login and as it is working, why not forwarding after failed also in this way .?

Which mean to use 

request.getRequestDispatcher("/login.jsp").include(request, response);

Problem is response.sendRedirect(...) does not prepend the context path where the resource (jsp) is bundled. Try using request.getRequestDispatcher(...) in both cases.

use request.getContextPath(), It will redirect you to login page. 

response.sendRedirect(request.getContextPath()+"/login.jsp");

and if you are reaching to your login page in that case, pass request and response objects to your jsp page.

request.getRequestDispatcher(request.getContextPath()+"/login.jsp").forward(request,response);
